The Girl From The Hiring Fair

 

The Girl From The Hiring Fair

(album: Bridge Of Sighs - 1987)


I went down to the hiring fair, for to sell my labour
And I noticed a maid in the very next row and I hoped that shed be my neighbour
Imagine then o my delight when the farmer picked us both

I spoke not a word in the cart to the farm but my heart beat in my throat
My lodging was dry and my master fair and I gave him full measure
But my envy grew like the corn in the field for in his house was my treasure
And Id watch her carry water or drive cows from the byre
And the heat from the sun made the corn grow strong and with it my desire

I'd see her in my dreaming and in my dreams caress
Her eyes her lips and her dark brown hair the curves beneath her dress
When harvest time it came at last so heavy was the task
That the women and the men worked side by side and I had her near at last

So I swung harder with my scythe few words between us passed
And I cursed my tongue tied youthfulness and I hoped that shed hear my heart
When all was safely gathered in and we sat down to rest
My trembling fingers touched her arm and she placed them on her breast
And she turned to me as the sun went down and all my senses reeled
As we lay there on the scented ground and the moon rose over the field

She was safely gathered in my arms when from the barn
Drifted the sound of the violin and we hurried back to the farm
And all were dancing in the lantern light and music filled the air
And I thanked my stars for the harvest moon and the girl from the hiring fair

And all were dancing in the lantern light and music filled the air
And I thanked my stars for the harvest moon, and the girl from the hiring fair
